Company Overview
Our client is a fast-growing UK infrastructure business that develops, operates, and maintains a nationwide network of public assets and services. Since its launch in 2019, the organisation has expanded rapidly across the UK, supported by significant private investment and long-term funding.
With a growing national footprint, the business is focused on delivering reliable, accessible infrastructure that serves communities, supports economic growth, and provides an excellent customer experience. It works closely with a broad range of partners and suppliers to ensure its services remain resilient, secure, and fit for the future.
The organisation places a strong emphasis on innovation, sustainability, and customer satisfaction, recognising that high-quality digital services and operational excellence are fundamental to its continued growth.
The Role
Our client is seeking a proactive and experienced IT Operations & Security Manager to oversee the day-to-day operation of its IT services, ensuring business continuity, operational efficiency, and the security of its technology estate.
Working closely with both internal stakeholders and a range of specialist third-party providers, you will be responsible for maintaining and continually improving the organisation's IT operations, infrastructure, and security. As a lean business with outsourced IT services, the role requires strong supplier management skills across areas including Microsoft 365, cloud platforms, business applications, websites, CRM systems, and cyber security services.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is an operational management position rather than a project delivery role. Responsibility for major technology projects sits elsewhere within the organisation, allowing this role to focus on ensuring core business systems remain secure, stable, and effectively managed.
